Springer Book Archives
"This book completes a comprehensive collection of assays,
including the weird and wonderful, that can be used to investigate
the enzymology and drug inhibition of topoisomerases...I recommend
any students about to undertake a PhD degree in this area to buy a
copy. Even those who are well versed in the biology of
topoisomerases should consider buying both volumes of this book,
they will surely find some things they didn't know - I did!" -
MicroBiology Today
"Described by expert experimentalists who have perfected the
techniques, these reproducible methods include assays for
enzyme-catalyzed DNA relaxation/supercoiling, DNA cleavage, DNA
nicking, DNA decatentaion, and ATP hydrolysis." - Anticancer
Research
"An unprecedented collection of cutting-edge experimental protocols
for investigating the catalytic activities of DNA topoisomerases,
as well as their specific interactions with topoisomerase-targeted
antitumor and antibacterial drugs." -Tumori
